Pre-loads for Grand Theft Auto 6 started yesterday (November 10), revealing the game’s menu music.

Grand Theft Auto 6 launches midnight local time on November 19. So players can dive into the world of Vice City as soon as possible, Rockstar Games has allowed eager gamers to download GTA 6 ahead of time so there’s no awkward waiting next Friday.

Pre-loading Grand Theft Auto 6 doesn’t allow you to play the game any sooner, but it has revealed the menu music – and it’s already racking up hours of streams across social media.

One tweet featuring a 57-second snippet of the dreamy electro music has been viewed more than 1.3million times on X, another has clocked 5.8million views while an hour-long loop of the instrumental track has racked up more than 50,000 views in less than 24 hours.

Grand Theft Auto 6 will feature an original score from dance titans Justice while an accompanying soundtrack album will feature 34 brand new tracks from some of the biggest artists in the world. So far ten tracks from the project have been released, including Cardi B’s ‘Don’t Chart’, Travis Scott’s ‘RHYNO’ and ‘Blood In Your Eyes’ by Tove Lo. The full record drops November 19, while Justice’s original score will hit streaming in December.

Meanwhile, Grand Theft Auto 6’s in-game radio stations will be hosted by a range of artists, including Lana Del Rey, Bad Bunny, Slayer‘s King Kerry and Tom Araya and Robyn.

To celebrate the launch of Grand Theft Auto 6, Rockstar Games is throwing a real-world festival in Miami next week (November 21) with live performances from Justice, Cardi B, Travis Scott, Ca7riel & Paco Amoroso, Don Toliver, Metro Boomin, Kodak Black, and SoFaygo. DJ sets across the night will include Nick León B2B DJ Python, Prospa B2B Skream, Rauw & Friends and more, as well as The Dare B2B with F******.
